The Reunion After Seven Years

"It's going to be alright, Nicole. Trust me. I will not let anything happen to Jay. I will keep him safe at all costs,"

Kerr promised to Nicole.

He was aware of how important Jay was to Nicole. If anything were to happen to Jay, he knew that Nicole would be devastated.

In fact, she would probably lose the desire to live.

"Where is he? I want to see him right now, I want to accompany him!"

She lifted the quilt and attempted to get out of bed, but her head started to get dizzy before she could even sit up.

"Don't worry, Nicole. I've called the best doctor I could find to take care of him. I assure you that he will be fine."

He stood up and gently pressed Nicole on the bed so she would not attempt to sit up again. He gave her a firm look and hoped that he looked as confident as his words.

In all honesty, Kerr himself wasn't all that sure about Jay's condition. He had just talked to the doctor a while ago but he could not find the courage to tell Nicole anything. He was afraid that it would just worry her more. Her condition was unstable enough as it was. He feared that if he said anything, it might worsen.

"I want to see my son, please!" she pleaded desperately. "I am not a good mother. All of it is my fault. I didn't take good care of him. His life was put at risk because of me. It's all my fault…"

Nicole couldn't stop blaming herself. At that moment, she wished that she could trade places with her son and take all of his pain.

All she could think of was her son's small face. Jay was always much more mature and sensible compared to other children in his age group. It was because of that reason that Nicole had felt that she did not pay enough attention to him as his mother. Sometimes, she would end up unconsciously neglecting his needs.

This accident was an event that Nicole blamed herself for. If she hadn't been so distracted, there wouldn't have been such a terrible car accident. If only she had remembered to fasten the seat belt for Jay, he would have been alright.

Don't blame yourself for what happened.
